- Our office just moved, and with our new building, we got a new phone
- system. Well, it isn't exactly "new", but it is newer than the one we
- had before. It is an NEC Electra-16/48.
-
- I am still new to all this PBX talk, and it is a bit of an annoyance
- that I have yet to discover how to program and use this thing, let
- alone any of it's capabilities. We have one manual called
- "INSTALLATION SERVICE MANUAL" which is rather cryptic. It assumes
- that you know all the PBX lingo and what you are doing. On top of all
- that the local telco no longer supports this beast so we have to get
- someone from a differnt company in to make any changes to the wiring
- or programming. We develop software and hardware here, so this is all
- right in line with the technical capabilites of myself and a few other
- employees.
-
- How do I do anything with this? Where can I find out more information?
- Does anyone still manufacture options for this? (The manual is dated
- 1983).
-
- All I have to do is learn, so where do I look first? Hopefully
- comp.dcom.telecom is the place to start.

- Cheers,
-
- Camz.
